Thank you for reporting. I have committed your proposed fix to the git repositories (but not the PPA yet). https://github.com/Bumblebee- Project/Bumblebee/commit/20b4ece4614744e310f8d85a9a16af62d8c61a4d Have you manually edited your bumblebeed.conf and tested it already (I guess so, but just for sure :-) ) Is this a problem that occurs on a standard installation since Quantal? If so, we need to release a fix soon but otherwise it can be queued for a future release.
